Recently the Supreme Court ruled that States may no longer fund abortions as part of medical care. Planned Parenthood can no longer bill Idaho Medicaid for Idaho resident abortions. Planned Parenthood clinics in Spokane County will now offer there services to Idaho residents free of charge. This means that Spokane County residents may have to pay higher fees at their clinic to accommodate having to pay Idaho residents abortions. Since most clients pay on a sliding fee scale due to income. Most low income pay nothing this should not change how Spokane County residents are charged.
Most of the Alaska Native Regional Corporations cover rural Alaska. Since most of rural Alaska is not in a borough. This makes it so the state has foot the for rural education. It is time these 501 3c Regional Alaska Native Corporations start paying to educate children in rural areas. This will save taxpayers money. Remember most of the lobbyist of these native corporations do not represent the shareholders in these area who want a full permanent fund dividend. These keep electing these native big wigs and some like Lyman Hoffman and Bryce Edgmon end up as lawmakers.
Recently the US Supreme Court has ruled if the parent request copies of school lesson plans. The school district must provide it upon request. They also can demand that lesson plans be changed if the majority of parents object to the lesson plans. This ruling actually makes it so parents are in charge of the school district not education association.
Recently with the help of Anchorage's homeless population. Visit Anchorage has now come up with a new promotion of what Anchorage attracts for permanent residents. Here is a link the video they just released to the public https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3RBOQaPv4M This is with the help of the current Anchorage Assembly in refusing to address this issue during the last four years. Princess Suzy and Lord Constant Problem have no clue how to address this issue either.
It is time these non profit agencies that are suppose to help Anchorage homeless to start paying the bill for the clean up. We have an agency called the Anchorage Coalition to End Homeless formerly headed by Meg Zalatel former Anchorage Assembly member who just took the money and put it in her own pocket instead helping the less fortunate. Then we also have these non profit Native Corporations who some of their shareholders are members of Anchorage's homeless problem. Maybe the Municipality of Anchorage can send a bill to these native corporations. Remember some of Anchorage's homeless are people from rural Alaska village where the tribal council has kicked out the individual gave them a one way ticket to Anchorage say do not come back. Here is an example of this policy. Let's say we have a person from Selawick after the local native village council decided that person should be banished. Let's say this person is a NANA shareholder then they should pay for the person while staying in Anchorage. Why should taxpayers have to pay for clean up for a problem population.
There already laws in place that allow a person in the service industry to reject a person for alcohol purposes. If the ID is straight up and down and they over 21 years of age they can reject the person based on that alone. An ID issued must be rectangle form to be excepted. They can also reject if the person comes more than two in one day according to state law. If the person acts a certain way which means if they look like they are intoxicated they may refuse to serve according to state. Recently the Anchorage Assembly has decided to add a law the service industry has already been doing anyways.
Guess what in the past four years the Municipality of Anchorage has made no improvements to the main bus transit center. They could have kept the doors open. The leaders Andrew Halcro and Ethan Berkowitz used COVID-19 pandemic as a reason to kept the people out of the transit center. Then to prevent Dave Bronson a victory as mayor the Anchorage Assembly kept this building closed to the public. They waited til Princess Suzi became mayor then decide to open it back to the public
